About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Purpura, Thrombocytopenic, Idiopathic focused on measuring thrombocytopenia, Immune Thrombocytopenia, purpura

Eligibility Criteria

10 Years - 70 Years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Meet the diagnostic criteria for immune thrombocytopenia.
  2. Male or female, between the ages of 10 ~ 70 years.
  3. Normal glucocorticoid therapy is ineffective or effective but the maintenance dose is large, without immunosuppressive therapy or immunosuppressive treatment ineffective
  4. To show a platelet count < 30×10^9/L, or with bleeding manifestations.
  5. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)performance status ≤ 2

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Current HIV infection or hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus infections.
  2. Severe medical condition (lung, hepatic or renal disorder) other than ITP. Unstable or uncontrolled disease or condition related to or impacting cardiac function (e.g., unstable angina, congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension or cardiac arrhythmia)
  3. Female patients who are nursing or pregnant, who may be pregnant, or who contemplate pregnancy during the study period.
  4. Have a known diagnosis of other autoimmune diseases, established in the medical history and laboratory findings with positive results for the determination of antinuclear antibodies, anti-cardiolipin antibodies, lupus anticoagulant or direct Coombs test.
  5. Patients who are deemed unsuitable for the study by the investigator.

Arm Label

group A

group B

Arm Description

In group A, Rituximab was given with a fixed dose of 100 mg administered as an intravenous infusion weekly (on day 1, 8, 15 and 22).

In group B, Rituximab was given with a single dose of 375mg/m2

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Evaluation of platelet response(continuous response rate)
Complete Response:a sustained (≥ 3 months) platelet count≥100×10^9/L;response: a sustained (≥ 3 months) platelet count ≥ 30×10^9/L without recurrence of thrombocytopenia;No response (NR): platelet count < 30 × 10^9/L or a less than two fold increase in platelet count from baseline or the presence of bleeding. Platelet count must be measured on two occasions more than a day apart.

Secondary Outcome Measures

therapy associated adverse events
The number and frequency of therapy associated adverse events

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The project was undertaking by Qilu Hospital of Shandong University in China. In order to compare the efficacy, safety and response duration of different dose of rituximab in patients primary immune thrombocytopenia(pITP).
Detailed Description
62 patients with pITP who had failed to respond to glucocorticosteroids were randomly divided into 2 groups: group A(n = 32) and group B(n = 30). In group A, Rituximab was given with a fixed dose of 100 mg administered as an intravenous infusion weekly (on day 1, 8, 15 and 22). In group B, Rituximab was given with a single dose of 375mg/m2. The clinical effect, onset time, duration of efficacy and adverse reactions were observed to compare the efficacy and safety of two different plans.
